The Traveller's Daybook invites you to cross ocean, desert, mountain & ice-cap in the company of the world's greatest explorers, wanderers & writers
- Fergus Fleming's day-by-day anthology of travel writing ranges widely across time as well as place: from Christopher Columbus's 'discovery' of the West Indies in 1492 via the trans-American expedition of Meriwether Lewis & William Clark in 1804
- 6, & on to Wilfred Thesiger's wanderings in Arabia's 'empty quarter' in the 1940s. Each"ed extract is accompanied by a brief commentary that introduces the writer & brings the context to life. Fleming's itinerary offers both a wealth of exotic & extraordinary destinations, & a many-hued patchwork of moods & surprising serendipities: the delight of the seventeenth-century diarist John Evelyn at the spring mildness of Naples in February; the stoic courage of Captain Scott facing death at forty degrees below zero; & the exasperation of the poet Dylan Thomas at finding himself in a 'stifflipped, liverish, British Guest House in puking Abadan'. Whether undertaken on foot, on horseback, by sail or by dog-sled, or across arid desert, rugged mountain, stormy sea, or polar wastel&, these 366 journeys will spur the reader's wanderlust & tempt him to explore further the work of the writers"ed. But, most of all, they will transport the soul & liberate the imagination.
